A gold(I)-catalyzed enantioselective thioallylation of propiolates with allyl sulfides is described. The key mechanistic element is a sulfonium-induced Claisen rearrangement which helps minimize the allyl dissociation and render higher enantioselectivity. This protocol features remarkable scope of the allyl moiety, allowing enantiocontrolled synthesis of all-carbon quaternary centers, and exhibits exceptional functional group compatibility with many Lewis bases and π-bonds. This intermolecular variant of Claisen rearrangement forges both C-S and C-C bonds concomitantly, providing efficient access to interesting optically active organosulfur compounds which can be transformed further through the vinyl sulfide as a functional handle. The rate of the reaction was zeroth order with respect to allyl sulfides, which suggested a reversible inhibition, providing a resting state for the catalyst. The Hammett plot displayed a correlation with σp values, suggesting a turnover-limiting sigmatropic rearrangement where decreased electron-density on sulfur accelerated the rearrangement.

The present invention provides non-peptide organic compounds that have a structure analogous to or reminiscent of the TMOF structure and have pesticidal activity. Thus the present invention concerns pesticidal compounds that inhibit digestion in pests by terminating or otherwise blocking synthesis of digestive enzymes by activating a TMOF receptor (collectively referred to herein as “pesticidal compounds”). The pesticidal compounds and other compounds of the present invention are usefully employed in the control of pests, particularly insect pests such as mosquitoes, which ingest blood.
